Otherworldly Gaze

I don’t even know how our lips met. It just… happened, and he tastes sweet, like a gourmet dessert, and instantly, I want more. I can't even form a thought right now as I part my lips and our tongues dance together. It’s a primal force, instinct maybe, something telling me that at this moment, I have everything I have ever wanted in my life. I have a mate. I am complete. *** I always thought I was leading a good life, although I never quite felt like I belonged, until I met Devon, the gorgeous, sexy Alpha of the Emerald Moon pack whose mesmerizing gaze drew me in. Wolves? How could I be one of those? I find out I’m a hybrid, wolf and mage, and all this time I’ve never been a human at all. No wonder I didn’t fit in. But just as things are starting to come together for us, it’s all quickly torn apart as mysterious outside forces with an ancient hatred invade our world and threaten everything. Will the love of a true, fated mate save everything, or will it be my downfall?

The omega gasped, body heating up under the grip of the other's hands on his hips. Tears of pleasure clouded his vision and he fisted his hands in the silk sheets. "I can't..." he whimpered. "It's too much..." "You can," Xavier growled in his ear, a predatory glint in his eyes. "Arch for me, Sweetheart." Vernon, despite the tiredness in his limbs, obeyed the alpha's command. ************** Forced into a marriage with Xavier Donovan, one of the most ruthless alphas in Virex City, Vernon Giordano expects the union to be an outright disaster. He has read enough about Xavier in the papers to believe that. Imagine his surprise when he discovers that none of it is true and that his husband is a gentleman who looks at him like he hung the stars. Under Xavier’s tender touches that send his heart spiraling, and beneath an intense gaze that makes him question everything he’s ever felt, Vernon finds himself falling hard and fast for his husband. But their marriage is fraught with danger, secrets, and betrayals from both sides that threaten to ruin their budding relationship. Can Xavier and Vernon hold on and fight for their love? Or will they crumble under the threats of friends and foes alike?

To get a divorce from Dante Conti, I volunteered to walk away with nothing—even our three-year-old son. Seeing that I had deliberately changed back into the old clothes I wore before marriage, Dante froze for a moment, then sneered, "So? You don't even want Nico, the heir you fought so hard to give birth to?" "Careful. Play your part too long, and you won't be able to recover the scene," he warned. I pushed the signed agreement toward him. "Don't worry. This isn't acting." Dante shot me a puzzled look before signing his name. "So obedient? Fine. I'll be magnanimous and let you see Nico from time to time." He set down the pen, his gaze appraising me. "And if you regret it… come to me now, and maybe—just maybe—we could remarry—" I cut him off, standing and walking away without a word. He had thought I married him for the Mafia's power, that's why I had given him an heir to inherit his family. But once he knows I'm dead, there will be no more misunderstandings.

Elena Rossi thought it was just another job. One more shift. One more night serving drinks to rich, powerful men. She didn’t know she was the real product. Trapped inside an exclusive, invite-only event, Elena finds herself dressed up, displayed… and sold to the highest bidder in a private auction she never agreed to. And the man who buys her? Cillian O’Rourke. Irish CEO. Ruthless Mafia king. A man with blood on his hands and control in his veins. Now she lives in his world, in his penthouse, under his rules, surrounded by danger she doesn’t understand. She fights him. Defies him. Swears she’ll never belong to him. But Cillian isn’t interested in forcing her. He wants her to want it. To feel it. To come undone under his gaze until resistance turns into need. Because when Elena Rossi finally breaks… She won’t be trying to escape him anymore.
She’ll be begging for him. One job. One auction. One man who decides she belongs to him, and won’t ever let her forget it.

He watched her in the distance, his mind clouded over in confusion. How could he, one of the coldest Alphas in the country, have a mate?The thought of having to take care of someone for the rest of his life haunted him. He always thought he was meant to run the most powerful pack that had no weaknesses; once his wolf becomes attached to hers, nothing can tear them apart. It is known to be the cause of the deaths of many great Alphas, and yet here he stood, unable to tear his eyes away from her.Her soft, shimmering lips stood out to him from across the clearing, occasionally being grazed by her soft, silky golden hair. Her delicate fingers brushed a strand from over her crystal blue eyes as they continued to gaze over the leather-covered book resting in the center of her lap.A soft breeze flowed over her bare shoulders, sending her scent right in his direction. A shiver traveled up his spine as his eyes rolled back into his head. A low growl erupted from his chest, wondering why she was all alone in an empty clearing. She seemed like a prize he had yet to win. (Complete

He curses, "How dare she! She didn't even bother calling since we kicked her out a few months ago!" Mom holds my brother, Caleb. Her gaze is full of heartache. "Jolene is an ingrate.

I spun around to see Giovanni's gaze fixed on me as he leaned out of the wall, a huge cigarette in his mouth. My heart raced, but I maintained a stoic expression, "I was going to the restroom." Giovanni raised an eyebrow, not believing me. "The restroom is on the left, while you're taking the right leading to a back exit," his tone laced with suspicion. I faked a shocked expression. "I didn't know," I lied. Giovanni neared me, slowly backing me against the door. "You see, I haven't marked you, and I would be terrified if you got lost," he said, his voice filled with an unsettling threat and amusement. He began peeling off the tiny straps of my dress from my shoulders, his eyes growing darker. "Do you have another pair of underwear?" I trembled, "Yes, Why?" "Because, my darling, I'm about to rip this one," he replied, his eyes glinting darkly.
